Commentators highlight that Jehoshaphat's prayer models a crucial spiritual posture. By declaring, "we have no might" and "neither know we what to do," he isn't just stating a fact; he is making a profound confession of total dependence. Matthew Henry notes that even with a great army, Jehoshaphat rightly saw their strength as nothing without God. This admission of helplessness is the necessary first step to fully relying on God's power.
